Have Fed2, Will Travel

[JimG]

My Fed 2 to is finally ready for duty. I got an FSU finder for the 35mm Skopar and a square hood from CameraQuest. Sorry, I just had to show off.

Don't get me started as well.

That olive-green Fed 2 is beautiful. I assume you painted it yourself?

And you've put a custom soft-release on it!

I'd love to try something like that someday.

Thanks Clarence. I did paint it myself. I'm still working on the instructions. It's more difficult than I thought. The soft shutter is actually a screw to secure the hard drive.

JimG....your FED looks like it's ready for action. Have fun shooting with it.

You have a hard drive in your FED? Amazing.

PS: I know, I know.

I took this photo yesterday with my fed but there's very little detail of the structure. I took my meter reading at the shadowy part. Maybe I overdeveloped the film. Wish I knew what I did wrong.

That's a mild case of 'banding' You can find out more about it here:

Great looking FEDs here ... and the Zorki. JimG, the lens/hood/finder combo looks right at home.
